Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 25 Comments
Darksiders Warmastered Edition made it out on various platforms last November. Unfortunately, the Wii U version still hasn’t launched, and publisher THQ Nordic has been keeping quiet about the situation in recent weeks.

@WiiU_PRO @darksiders No, we have not.
— THQNordic (@THQNordic) February 6, 2017
THQ Nordic explained to us last year that “optimizing the game for the Wii U is still a tough task.” The team “made the call of releasing it properly and the only conclusion was to delay it.”
